Clinical trials in cardiac arrest and subarachnoid hemorrhage: lessons from the past and ideas for the future.
Conclusions. Clinical trials in SAH assessing acute brain injury are warranted and successful interventions identified by the cardiac arrest literature may be reasonable targets of the study. PMID: 23533956 [PubMed]

Maternal death from stroke: a thirty year national retrospective review
Conclusion: This is the largest UK study examining the incidence of fatal maternal stroke in pregnancy and the puerperium. Our results highlight the high proportion of women who die from stroke in the puerperium. Sub-standard care featured especially in regard to management of dangerously high systolic blood pressure levels. These deaths highlight the importance of education in managing rapid-onset hypertension and superimposed coagulopathies.

A nearly full-recovery from AVM hemorrhagic stroke 17 years after insult using a new integrated neurodevelopmental approach: A case report
This study investigated a novel approach to chronic-phase stroke rehabilitation using traditional child motor-learning techniques, play, and proprioceptive-building activities in addition to current stroke rehabilitation techniques. During an initial six-month period, followed by a three-year period, the participant used motor-developmental learning activities as well as traditional strength, gait, and balance training. During the initial phase of treatment, clinically-significant improvements were recorded along with self-reported lifestyle enhancements. These gains continued throughout the three-and-a-half year process. ...

The risk of stroke among acutely ill hospitalized medical patients: lessons from recent trials on extended-duration thromboprophylaxis.
Authors: Marszalek J, Mehrsefat S, Chi G Abstract Data from recent randomized controlled trials indicate that the incidence of stroke among acutely ill medical patients is unexpectedly high and approximates 1% at 90 days. Preliminary data suggest that betrixaban may reduce ischemic stroke in patients without atrial fibrillation. There is an unmet demand for stroke risk stratification schemes targeting hospitalized medical patients. The prognostic value of biomarkers such as natriuretic peptides and D-dimer in predicting short-term stroke remains uncertain. Future research should focus on identifying the high-risk s...

Could pure agraphia be the only sign of stroke ? Lessons from two case reports
L Billeri, A Naro, A Manuli, RS CalabroJournal of Postgraduate Medicine 2021 67(2):93-95 Agraphia is defined as the disruption of the previously intact writing skills due to an acquired brain damage. Stroke remains the most common cause of language impairment; however, writing disorders, including agraphia, are underestimated in patients with stroke. In this regard, we report two patients presenting with pure agraphia as an early symptom of stroke. Both patients complained of at least two difficulties in visualizing letter formation beforehand, the frequent need for verbal cues, misuse of lines and margins, poorly legible...

Restoration of the corticoreticular pathway following shunt operation for hydrocephalus in a stroke patient
We report on a stroke patient who showed restoration of discontinued corticoreticular pathways (CRPs) on serial diffusion tensor tractography (DTT) concurrent with recovery of gait disturbance following shunt operation for hydrocephalus.Patient concerns:A 67-year-old female patient underwent stereotactic drainage for management of intraventricular hemorrhage due to a rupture of the left posterior communicating artery.Diagnoses:After 4 weeks from onset, the patient exhibited quadriparesis with more severe weakness in the proximal muscles and could not even stand or walk. She underwent comprehensive rehabilitation for 3 week...

Vitamin K Antagonist–associated Intracerebral Hemorrhage: Lessons from a Devastating Disease in the Dawn of the New Oral Anticoagulants
Conclusions: VKA-associated ICH presents in a particularly vulnerable population and has a poor prognosis that may be reliably predicted by several clinicoradiologic features.

Change of ascending reticular activating system with recovery from vegetative state to minimally conscious state in a stroke patient
We report on a stroke patient who showed change of the ascending reticular activating system (ARAS) concurrent with recovery from a vegetative state (VS) to a minimally conscious state (MCS), which was demonstrated on diffusion tensor tractography (DTT). Patient concerns: A 59-year-old male patient underwent CT-guided stereotactic drainage 3 times for management of intracerebral hemorrhage and intraventricular hemorrhage. Diagnosis: After 4 months from onset, when starting rehabilitation, the patient showed impaired consciousness, with a Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score of 6 and a Coma Recovery Scale-Revised score of 2. At...

Restoration of the ascending reticular activating system compressed by hematoma in a stroke patient
In conclusion, restoration of nonreconstructed neural tracts of the lower ARAS with the resolution of the hematoma and perihematomal edema was demonstrated in a stroke patient, using DTT.

The allocentric neglect due to injury of the inferior fronto-occipital fasciculus in a stroke patient: A case report
We report on a patient who developed allocentric neglect due to injury of the inferior fronto-occipital fasciculus (IFOF) following intracranial hemorrhage, diagnosed using diffusion tensor tractography (DTT).Patient concerns:Her cognition seemed normal (A 17-year-old, right-handed female patient). However, in spite of a normal visual field, her perception was missing on the left side, and she had no awareness of her deficit. She was unable to perceive the left side in each of 2 objects, regardless of position of the 2 objects, and failed at detail exploration of the left side of 1 object. In addition, the line bisection t...

Recovery of an injured corticospinal tract via an unusual pathway in a stroke patient: Case report
Rationale: A few mechanisms of recovery from an injured corticospinal tract (CST) in stroke patients have been reported: recovery of an injured CST through (1) normal CST pathway, (2) peri-lesional reorganization, and (3) shifting of the cortical origin area of an injured CST from the other areas to the primary motor cortex. However, it has not been clearly elucidated so far. Patient concerns: A 57-year-old male patient presented with complete weakness of the right extremities due to an intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) in the left basal ganglia. At three weeks after onset, the patient showed severe weakness of his right...

Increased thalamocortical connectivity to the medial prefrontal cortex with recovery of impaired consciousness in a stroke patient: A case report
We report a stroke patient who showed increased thalamocortical connectivity to the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) with recovery of impaired consciousness that was demonstrated on diffusion tensor tractography (DTT) of the ascending reticular activating system (ARAS). Patients concerns: A 48-year-old male patient underwent craniectomy and hematoma removal for spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage in the right basal ganglia and thalamus. When he started rehabilitation at 5 weeks after onset he was in a vegetative state with a Coma Recovery Scale-Revised score of 6. Diagnoses: The patient was diagnosed spontaneous intr...

Alterations of functional connectivity in auditory and sensorimotor neural networks: A case report in a patient with cortical deafness after bilateral putaminal hemorrhagic stroke
Rationale: Cortical deafness is a rare auditory dysfunction caused by damage to brain auditory networks. The aim was to report alterations of functional connectivity in intrinsic auditory, motor, and sensory networks in a cortical deafness patient. Patient concerns: A 41-year-old woman suffered a right putaminal hemorrhage. Eight years earlier, she had suffered a left putaminal hemorrhage and had minimal sequelae. She had quadriparesis, imbalance, hypoesthesia, and complete hearing loss. Diagnoses: She was diagnosed with cortical deafness. After 6 months, resting-state functional magnetic resonance imagin...
